A nice book with a good lesson
It is a sweet book with a story line about two sisters who do ballet move to a small town. They both have very different experiences moving with Michaela becoming popular and loving the move and Katie ( Katya) hating the place. It teaches you a good lesson about positive thinking, determination and sibling bonds. It talks mildly about sex, Michaela has an email saying "congratulations on no longer being a virgin and saying she will safely teach her sister about it. It is good read for mature/ older kids.

GREAT book
love it! sex isnt anything anyone older than 10 or 11 doesnt know about! when i was 10, i was mildly curious about the subject,and because my parents didnt want to talk about it, i turned to books. and now, at age 13, im not a virgin, and im very grateful to all the books i read about it in. these kind of books really help ppl understand that sex isnt bad, it just isnt wise to do while youre young. and she used a condom and was on birth control,and shes 17,so she made smart descisions. great role models, great book.

Good for girls with sisters just a few years younger than themselves.
Michaela has sex with her boyfriend, and Katie later finds out after reading her sister's email. There are very mild uses of cussing, but otherwise it should be fine. An older women and some teens smoke cigarettes fairly consistently. The strength of the sisters' bond is tested by many different things that happen in the book. I would especially recommend this story to those girls who have an older or younger sister within a few years of their own age.

I think its good for teens and older. No less though.
It was good, but it should have been a little more interesting, it was interesting just not enough for me to constantly keep turning the pages everyday.
